Peach Blossom Mountain Liu Jiaxiu's Biography

Chapter 1156 Family Banquet
After the coming-of-age ceremony, the two brothers Liu Fujin and Liu Fusheng, together with other people of their age, began to participate in family affairs.

Since Liu Fujin was a second-grade top-grade weapon refiner, he chose to enter the family's weapon refining hall and engage in weapon refining-related work.

Since Liu Fusheng is a second-grade superior spiritual plant master, he chose to work in the family's medicine garden.

At this point, Liu Changxu finally no longer had to worry about the lives and cultivation of his two younger sons every day.

In order to celebrate the coming of age of his two younger sons, Liu Changxu, his wife and children held a small family dinner in Ruyi Lotus Palace on the evening of the coming-of-age ceremony.

In addition to Liu Changxu and his wives, those who attended the family dinner included his daughter Liu Fujiao, his son Liu Fuba and his family of three, as well as brothers Liu Fujin and Liu Fusheng.

Although the number of people participating in this family dinner was not large, they still filled the white jade round table.

At this moment, the warm white jade table was filled with various exquisite and tempting spiritual dishes like a scroll.

The spiritual fruit carvings are like flowers blooming in spring. Each petal seems to be carefully carved by the hands of nature, tender and juicy, as if it still carries the dew and fragrance of the morning garden.

The steamed grouper lies quietly on the plate. The texture of the fish body looks like natural brocade, gleaming a silver halo under the pearlescent light. The fins and tail are slightly tilted, just like a nimble dragon about to leap over the Dragon Gate.

The braised venison is served in a white jade bowl. The venison is faintly visible in the broth, the aroma of the meat and the deliciousness of the broth blend together, and the rising hot air is like the light mist in the mountains.

The braised dragon meat has a deep and attractive color. Each piece looks like a ruby ​​kissed by flames. It has a slightly burnt aroma on the surface, but is tender and juicy inside.

The crystal shrimp paste is crystal clear, just like the ice that has just melted in spring, wrapped with the tender pink shrimp meat. The melt-in-the-mouth texture and the sweetness of the shrimp meat dance on the tip of your tongue.

The Five Elements Immortality Soup rolled with five-colored light in the white jade basin, as if it contained the mysteries and spiritual energy of the five elements of heaven and earth.

The Eight Treasure Lotus Seed Soup is served in a green jade basin, with lotus seeds and various precious ingredients floating in it, exuding a sweet and mellow aroma.

……

The divine meals on this table were all the painstaking creations of Liu Changxu and his wives. Under the soft pearlescent light, they looked like works of art that had fallen from fairyland into the mortal world, emitting a warm luster that was enough to bewitch people, making people intoxicated by the dreamland of food before they even started eating.

Liu Changxu sat in the main seat with dignity, his eyes slowly sweeping over his wife, children and grandchildren gathered around the jade table.

Seeing that everyone was in place, his originally dignified face instantly became like a spring breeze blowing across the lake, with layers of smiles rippling across it, and his eyes were full of love and warmth. His loud and kind voice then rang out:

"Everyone, let's eat!"

As he spoke, he picked up the jade chopsticks, picked up a piece of fish and put it into his mouth.

Seeing this, everyone stopped being polite and picked up their chopsticks, reaching for their favorite dishes.

In an instant, the originally quiet restaurant was filled with laughter and the crisp sound of chopsticks touching plates.

While everyone was happily enjoying the food, Liu Changxu's grandson Liu Zeming suddenly stood up.

Then, he picked up the jade jar filled with spiritual wine beside him and walked calmly towards Liu Changxu who was sitting in the main seat.

When he came closer, he bowed slightly, raised the jade altar in front of him with both hands respectfully, and said loudly:

"Grandpa, your grandson is toasting to you!"

Liu Changxu looked at his grandson with a gentle and smiling look. He had a handsome and vigorous figure in front of him. The smile on his face was as warm as the spring breeze. He said repeatedly:

"Good! Good!"

The joy and appreciation were beyond words.

As he spoke, he sat quietly and peacefully, allowing his grandson Liu Zeming to respectfully fill the glass in front of him with the clear wine. The aroma of the wine instantly filled the air.

Then, Liu Changxu seemed to remember something inadvertently, with a hint of expectation and curiosity in his eyes, and suddenly asked:
"Ming'er, when are you going to break through to the Golden Core stage?"

Although the voice was soft, it was particularly clear in the warm atmosphere of the family dinner, attracting the attention of everyone around.

"My grandson plans to start his retreat in the next few days and strive to reach the Golden Core Realm."

Seeing his grandfather asking, Liu Zeming hurriedly responded respectfully: "Oh! If you break through to the Golden Core now, although you have hope of success, the quality of the Golden Core will be difficult to reach the best, which will hinder your future practice."

Liu Changxu said with concern and earnest words:
"Grandpa, what should my grandson do?"

Liu Zeming asked anxiously:
"I suggest you don't rush to break through. First, travel outside for a few years. When your mind is harmonious and free from obstacles, you can retreat to break through. This is the safest way."

Liu Changxu said slowly:
"Grandson thanks grandpa for his teachings!"

Liu Zeming sincerely thanked him and said:

"That's good! Also, you're not a child anymore, it's time to consider starting a family, so that I can have a great-grandson soon."

Liu Changxu smiled and said jokingly:

"My dear husband, you don't know that Ming'er already has a woman he likes, and he plans to hold a wedding ceremony after he reaches Dan-formation!"

At this time, Su Jinxiu, who was sitting next to her, spoke up and told the truth.

"Oh! That's the girl from that family!"

Liu Changxu asked curiously:

"Oh! Whose girl is that?"

Liu Changxu's eyes sparkled with curiosity, and he asked with great interest:
"Grandpa, she is a true disciple of the Zhenhai Sect. I met her by chance at a party. Her father is the combined elder of the Zhenhai Sect. From the moment we met, I felt that she and I were compatible with each other and fell in love at first sight."

Liu Zeming smiled, unable to hide his love and affection for the woman, and reported to Grandpa truthfully:

"Oh! Do her father and the sect agree?" Liu Changxu asked seriously with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

"Father, I have already properly negotiated their marriage with the girl's father and the Zhenhai Sect. Everything is ready. We will officially get married tomorrow after I complete my elixir."

Liu Fuba spoke at the right time, his words revealing a sense of relief and pride.

"That's good!" After hearing his son's words, Liu Changxu nodded slightly, a satisfied smile appeared on his face, and said:
"Nahaer, when are you going to retreat and strive for the fusion state?"

Liu Changxu looked focused and continued to ask:
"I plan to wait until tomorrow when I have completed my elixir and get married, and then I will go into seclusion to break through the fusion stage."

Liu Fuba responded calmly:

"That's fine!"

Liu Changxu immediately nodded in approval.

At this moment, Wu Xuege beside him suddenly said softly:
"My husband, I plan to go into seclusion and break through the tribulation in a few days."

"Oh! Are you ready?"

Liu Changxu asked with concern:
"I have long been ready."

Wu Xuege replied with a firm look:
"Husband, in a few days, I will also go into seclusion to break through the fusion."

Chen Yufei on the side said:
"You should wait until Xue Ge breaks through the tribulation before you tell me! I'm worried that Xue Ge's tribulation will interfere with your breakthrough."

Liu Changxu suggested:
"Okay then! Husband, I'll listen to you!"

Chen Yufei nodded obediently and said:

Jiang Xuefeng and Yang Qingxue, who were about to speak, fell silent after seeing their husbands' statements.

Afterwards, everyone turned their attention back to the delicious food in front of them, toasting each other, and the atmosphere was very cheerful and lively!

Soon after the family dinner ended, Wu Xuege went straight into the Ascension Peak and began the difficult journey of seclusion to break through the Tribulation Period.
